Unconventional Modernism: M House by Marcel Luchian Studio

Marcel Luchian Studio designed the minimalist M House in Singera, a town in the Republic of Moldavia. Composed of unconventional forms, the residence’s concept design also does a brilliant job of marrying materials with a combination of glass and concrete, both inside and out.

The house’s structure is made up of two off-center forms, one on top of the other, steering clear of a traditional box-like design. The overhang from the second floor provides exterior coverage below, perfect for when it’s raining.

The two stories also contrast in color, with the darker shade being on the bottom.

This house is in the Republic of Moldova, not Moldavia which doesn’t exist. Moldavia was broken up in the late 19th century and is now spread between the Ukraine, Moldova and Romania. As the previous commenter notes, the house (like Moldavia) also doesn’t exist except as renderings.
